Fans of The Simpsons, rejoice!

The Kwik-E-Mart, the show's iconic convenience store, has just opened in real-life and it's got everything you're looking for. From Lard Lad Donuts to Heat Lamp Hot Dogs, Duff Beer, and even the good ol' Squishee drink, the store is now a permanent fixture in the popular tourist town of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

Mark Cornell, the senior vice president of attractions development at simEx-Iwerks Entertainment, the company behind the store, said this was a world-first. “This is the first, world’s first authentic Kwik-E-Mart,” he told WMBF news. “Every inch of this store is themed, including bringing products to life."
